We sit down with Arj Thiruchelvam, performance coach and founder of Performance Physique, todiscuss a groundbreaking study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. We asked Arj to help us redefine "how much is too much" and why your smartwatch might be giving you a false sense of security regarding your training load. We tease the "30-Day Window" and why a single-session distance spike is the most dangerous move a marathoner can make.
